Evolutionary Blues... West Oakland's Music Legacy

Original Programming Evolutionary Blues is a  KTOP original program.

Seventh Street in West Oakland supported and bolstered Blacks who answered the call of the war effort in the late 1940’s. Entrepreneurship created a fully contained community that provided work, homes and all the necessities of life including a fully developed music scene. Watch as more than 30 local musicians share their inspiration and describe the trajectory of the Oakland Blues: how it evolved and what it has become. www.evolutionarybluefilm.com.
